Most of the 700,000 young carers in Britain take on up to 20 hours of caring responsibilities a week. Some care for more than 50.<br \/><br \/>Create\u2019s creative arts programmes with young carers enable them to express themselves and develop confidence, self-esteem and supportive relationships with other young carers. They also give them a vital break from their caring responsibilities. This is just one of the many ways that Create helps the most disadvantaged children and adults within society. You can find out more about this particular project, and Create\u2019s wider work,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/createarts.org.uk\/?gclid=EAIaIQobChMI48KVwsDY5wIVF-DtCh0Z-gDCEAAYASAAEgKXnPD_BwE\">here<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>  \t\t<\/div>\r\n  \t\t\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    \r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/section><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"lazyblock-image-full-width-16JoqQ wp-block-lazyblock-image-full-width\"><section class=\"fullwidth fullwidth--img\">\n    <img data-src=\"https:\/\/www.vccp.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/8484_Wall_Mural_R1_crop.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"lazyload img-fluid\">\n\n<\/section><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"lazyblock-quote-full-width-29Iom6 wp-block-lazyblock-quote-full-width\">  <section class=\"fullwidth fullwidth--top-lg text-center\" data-aos=\"fade-up\">\n    <div class=\"container\">\n\n      <blockquote class=\"blockquote\">\n        In a country that seems wilfully to disregard the mental health, social and intellectual benefits of the arts in education, we believe the work Create does with the most disadvantaged and vulnerable in society is about as important as it gets.
